Default BACK TO THE LECTURE AT HAND....

Thanks BowTie, I've been telling people for weeks that they are doing this, they did something similar in New York and then dressed up the Mustangs as Police Cars.

The PK races are pretty safe but the cops need to save face so they are going to take someone down to look like heroes. 90% of the public doesn't know that the PK races are a completely different ball game than racing at 41st and Oak at a traffic light.

I can't believe that they want to start seizing cars! Say someone had a short stoplight run in a brand new Cobra and the cops come after him, he realizes that he might lose his car, is he going to stop and hand the government $40 grand (Canadian)? Or is he going to make a run for it? He makesa run for it and clears out a family of 4, is that better?

As much as I don't believe in a crackdown, especially at PK I do believe that there are a lot of people who shouldn't have licenses here and shouldn't own the cars they do, heck 20 people agd 16-23 in 5 weeks! A good portion of these were in overpowered cars that their parent's bought them. If I have kids and my 16 year old wants a fast car they can get a job and earn it so then they'll have a better chance of respecting it.
